Posts from How can we connect the fifth installment with the previous games in the series?

Ashan cannot be Enroth after the Reckoning. Ashan is described in detail in the M&M history in the thread "The Complete History of the Might and Magic World" (in my posts in this thread - a corrected and, in some places, clarified version, roughly speaking: the final version)).

Hmm, as far as I understand, the only problem is that Demilich calls Ashan a completely new world? That's too big of a discrepancy, I think we can ignore it, otherwise it would be a shame since the first campaign is already done.

No, Ashan (or Aslan) is indeed a completely new world. Everything can be done without ignoring the history of Might & Magic. According to my theory (it seems Demilich thinks the same way), Ashan is a planet located at some distance from the domains of the Ancients and the Creators. A planet with a moon (like Earth with the Moon), but Ashan has a major anomaly. Even before its appearance in that star system, there were many distortions and curvatures of space on its outskirts. When Ashan appeared in that system, it fell into that anomaly and stopped rotating, as did its moon. These distortions somehow isolated it from the rest of the Universe; the global physical laws within it are slightly different, and after this world became anomalous, it essentially ceased to be a world in the literal sense of the word. Having fallen into the spatial distortions, it turned into a cluster of unknown substance (or energy), from which the Cosmic Egg appeared (more on this in the Chronology of Ashan), from which two first dragons were born: Asha (or Asla) - the Dragon of Order and the progenitor of the Elemental Dragons (the gods of Ashan) and Urgash - the Dragon of Chaos and the creator of demons, brother and sister. The fact is that in the corrections to Demilich's history, I added a point about isolation from the rest of the Universe (I simply stated that Ashan is isolated by an unknown veil from the rest of the Universe). It was just not immediately clear from the first paragraph of Ashan's history that Ashan is a separate universe (although Demilich wrote "hidden from the all-seeing eyes of higher powers").

Then how do they know about Sandro, Crag Hack, and Solmyr on Ashan?
What is the reason for such similarity between the worlds?
Kosyayak.

These are characters with the same names. Note that they have completely different backstories and fates.

Specifically, which other ones?
I would like to know where we are going, because the first campaign is ready, but now it's going down the drain? It's better if I prove that Auchan is Enroth.

Like I said, Ashan is a completely new universe (according to Nival and Ubisoft's design), but above I outlined an idea of how to link it with the old M&M universe. Also, please respond to my request in the thread "Revive the M&M Universe".

The explanation for the similarity of the worlds is simple. Nival has already come up with a fairly cohesive, rich, and logical history for Ashan. Therefore, it's not a sin to take a few names from the old universe. Moreover, other than that, there are practically no similarities.

Before bringing up arguments, first read the history of Ashan (thread "The Most Complete History of M&M"). The fates are different. For example, Sandro in Ashan is the teacher of the Necromancer Markal, and there were no references to Sandro from the old universe.

So, did you figure out how to connect the fifth game with the other installments?

We've got an idea! That's what we're working on right now!

Hmm, I think we need a completely new universe... a new world...
And haven't you thought that civilizations could simply change...?
That is, first one existed... then it declined... a new one began to develop, and the name or language changed... and so on. Maybe this is the main connection... simply that legends are constantly passed down... and each civilization develops along a well-trodden path... but at the same time, it adds something of its own... at the very least, these could be different continents...

That's pretty much it. The civilization before the Reckoning will be replaced by the civilization after it. However, we won't be able to get to the campaigns for the fifth game anytime soon. That's where it will be explained in detail.

That's why you created this thread, right? To connect everything... heroes and times change... we've already gone through 5 eras... and these eras are almost all described thanks to all the parts and expansions... just global cataclysms... and in our time, this is relevant... if you understand what I mean... and I think we have the same idea...

Added 2 minutes later
Moreover, it seems to me that the world is one, but there are many civilizations... in this case, five... but in addition to this, there are also travels through time... some heroes confirm this... in principle, this explains why the development of civilizations is the same...

I think we should create a backstory explaining how the Kingdom from Heroes 4 became the Griffin Empire and where the new gods came from.

Actually, I'm for a new world, but Enroth would also be good.

Come to your senses! What kind of Enroth can there be if the world is completely destroyed, annihilated by the clash of swords! Ashan is a perfect fit!
